Patrón's New Margarita Fizzers Are Bath Bombs For Tequila

Ending a day with a brightly colored bath bomb, infusing a tub of warm water with floral scents and calming colors may be a beloved ritual to some. But for those who put off soothing bath time for a night at the bar, a new compromise is fizzing up glasses of tequila.

In honor of International Margarita Day on Thursday, February 22, Patrón has created its first-ever line of cocktail fizzers. Similar to a bath bomb, these solid, margarita-flavored pellets can be dropped into a cup of tequila (cold, not warm like a bath!) and create a fruit-flavored cocktail. The dry fizzer is activated by hitting the liquid (tequila in this case), and when the entire ball has fizzed out, the cocktail, which will not be fizzy, is ready.

Reaching far beyond the typical lime-flavor margarita, the fizzer has been created in unique flavors including passion fruit and jalapeño, lychee and chia seed, tomato and thyme, celery and elderflower, pickled plum and kelp tea, and orange marmalade with sherry. The fizzers are made from real ingredients (rather than flavorings) and require basically no mixology skill to use.

The fizzer margarita, ready to drink

"For Patron'sMargarita of the Year Competition, I wanted to create something whimsical and fun to celebrate all seven of the competitor's margaritas," says Cody Goldstein of Muddling Memories, who created the margarita fizzers. "The cocktail fizzers are a first of their kind and are handmade with all edible ingredients highlighting some of the key flavors found in the competition's margaritas."

Though they're currently not available for consumers to try at home (would anything be better than a bubble bath and a fruity, DIY margarita?!), for now, the fizzers are only available at Norwood in New York City. Each margarita fizzer cocktail costs $30, or all seven can be enjoyed for $200 (bring friends!).

Though Norwood is typically a members-only club, its partnership with Patrón allows anyone to visit the bar through February 22 by booking a reservation via Reservations@norwoodclub.com.
